These banana snakes are loved for their distinct yellow and tan bodies. But the comparison with bananas goes beyond that. These morphs also develop black spots throughout their body as they age.
This color and pattern was first discovered in the wild in 2003 and quickly became popular. Some hatchlings were even sold for $20,000! Luckily banana ball pythons are now much more affordable.
Banana ball pythons are a type of ball python morph famous for their yellow splotches and black freckles. This unique color helps them stand out when compared to the typical black and brown wild-type ball pythons.
Instead of the common black and brown base with tan blotches, these ball pythons have a lilac or gray base with yellow and tan blotches.
These yellowish blotches around their bodies are what gives them the name “banana”.
The first morph was found in the wild in 2003 by West African locals. It was thought to be the result of an aberrant mutation. These forms of mutations are usually extremely rare and have a low chance of survival.
Caring For a Banana Ball Python
Your Banana ball should provide you years of colorful companionship with a modicum of care. Like most ball pythons, they will need adequate space, a temperature gradient between 75° and 95°, a comfortable hiding space, clean living conditions and regular access to fresh water.
They are generally docile. You can take them out to show your friends without fear of bites so long as everyone handles the snake gently. (And when you own something this beautiful you will want to show them off)!
If you notice that a speckle on your Banana ball is moving, they may have mites or ticks. These little parasites can make your snake miserable. There are many snake-safe sprays you can use to deal with snake mites.
But it is far better to avoid exposing your snake to mites in the first place. Avoid taking your snake outside to play in your lawn as they may bring home unwelcome guests.
Keep their cage clean and keep any new snake you may bring into the house safely quarantined until you are certain it is healthy and pest-free. (And if this article inspires you to bring a new Banana ball into your home, be sure you keep it away from the rest of your collection until you are sure it has no parasites or contagious diseases!)
